What happening with indie music? it seems to be taken over by faders and equalizers and some half naked women. Last year alone never really seen a indie band reach number one. Which is a shame as indie has been going many years even before i was a twinkle in my dads eye. From the likes of the beetles and the jam and the clash. They all had a good stranglehold over music along with other major genres now a decent mix of beats and rhythm on a mixing deck it makes number one. No thought no background or history or pain in it. just plain simple music. Is it a lack of appreciation of the youngsters these days. all they want to listen to is either someone screaming into the microphone or trance. Even when a decent indie band bring a record out its slated by critics by not giving enough electric flair and it then fails to reach number one.
Its not as though theres a lack of indie bands, you have the likes of the courteeners who still bring out that raw edge of music that Britain is missing. That still ain't enough for the youngsters as they need there daily intake of the latest shite of remixed techno shite from some one boy wonder from the states "go away Chris brown"
Don't know about you but i would rather listen to a old granny record like ub40 red red wine than listen to another Chris brown.
Bring Back INDIE
